There's a new camera roll strip right on the viewfinder, and square format to social media-ready shots and collages. Click here to read more about the LG G6 camera. Outside the camera's interface, you'll also notice a few interface and software changes. There's a preloaded Square Camera app , and it's the first non-Google phone with Google Assistant baked in. The phone also includes a handful of new settings, one of which is "Comfort view," which warms the blueish hues of the screen for better nighttime viewing.
The G6 has a bigger 3,mAh battery than the 2,mAh cell inside its predecessor. And if you're in the US, the G6 can charge wirelessly. Until we get our hands on a final review product, however, we weren't able to conduct any formal lab testing to determine whether or not it actually lasts longer. What we can say is that you definitely cannot swap the G6's battery out for a fresh one, thanks to that upgraded unibody design.
Removable battery aside, the G6 combines the best features of the V20 and G5, with a few new ones that make it rise to the top of the LG line. Be respectful, keep it civil and stay on topic.

An hour or so later, I glance back at the CGMs. Interestingly, the G5 line has remained pretty flat from earlier in the morning while the G6 is trending up.
Fingerstick has me trending up too, but not up as far as the G6 does. After lunch we do another check in. It looks to me like I did bump up a bit and my G5 never caught it, but the G6 did. I decide at this point to calibrate the G5 again. I know over-calibrations can be a problem, but I do it anyway. Later, things are more obscure.
Fingerstick is smack in the middle. Key takeaway 1: It seemed to me like G6 caught some smaller fluctuations that G5 may not have. There could be lots of reasons why. These numbers are all from a fairly straightforward day of in-range blood sugars without many crazy variables. I kept tracking over the weekend, when things usually get a little whackier for me.
No surprise — more calories, more alcohol, and YEP, crazier blood sugars. Okay, it was a pretty big breakfast. Both graphs are trending similarly, but the G6 reading is closer to the fingerstick for sure. I correct with more insulin, and wait a little bit. Before lunch, we check back in. I would have been way off here on my lunch bolus! I was blessed with a flat overnight line thank you, BG fairies , and woke up like:.
Key takeaway 2: It seems to me that when my blood sugar is trending relatively flat, the G5 and G6 are both close to the fingerstick numbers. When I had a high, the G6 seemed to outperform the G5 when compared to fingerstick numbers. This is only anecdotal, but hopefully a good sign! Unfortunately not. The G6 is FDA approved with dosing hopefully remote via pump in mind, so it seems like they cracked down on extended wear times to ensure accuracy for the no-calibration approval. Cost will be dependent on your individual insurance plan.
Certainly with label use it should not be. Part of the cost concern in the community is related to the fact that the sensor does shut off in 10 days. That was part of the FDA requirement to get the labeling that we got. We think it is a fair trade for patients overtime and eventually we would like to extend the life to days.

Pocket-lint - The launch of LG's next flagship is finally here, following months and months of rumours and teasers. The new device has made its debut at Mobile World Congress on 26 February, bringing with it a huge display, all new design and some great specs.
It has very slim bezels at the top and bottom of the display and curved corners. The company has completely scaled back the modularity of the G5 and delivered more premium finish in comparison to last year's model.
The new flagship measures The G6 is also IP68 waterproof and dustproof, which has meant a sacrifice of the removable battery. The LG G5 has a painted aluminium build, which means it offers a slightly plasticky feeling. The bottom is removable though, allowing for a replaceable battery, along with the addition of LG's Friends modules. The LG G6 features a 5.
